After reading about Socrates ideal republic‚ I no longer wonder why Socrates was executed. The way he thinks and the ideas he expresses can be somewhat outlandish. Socrates way of thinking is original and helped shape the intellectual traditions in the west. Unfortunately‚ I disagree with some of the logic he uses and the ideas he suggests.

I will begin by describing the “noble lie” written in Book 3 of Plato’s Republic‚ not specifically the myth of the metals‚ but a more general idea.
